Identify Your Ford Tractor: 8N, 9N, 2N, Jubilee, NAA, 600, 800, 900, 2000, 3000, 4000 and Ferguson

[@lindendiehl2042]

Hi, it took me a little time to realize Rachel is the person in the article at times in the Farm Show magazine/paper. Each of you in your own right are awesome. Together you make a great team. Helping everyone with their tractor. You make everything easy to understand. As you go through things step by step. You provide an excellent service to anyone with a tractor. May God bless each of you and your family.

[@fescudder]

This has to be the best Ford tractor explanation video in existence. Nice work.

[@rjr113]

The 9N and 2N have draft control, along with the 8n. The 8n adds the position control option for your 3 point hitch.

[@316jd140]

Correct. So many people, including the originator of this video, confused the two.

[@jjay718]

I was going to say the same thing.

[@mattsebenoler9283]

I really love the style of your videos. Rachel, you are terrific. I just bought my first tractor to help out on my hunting property - a really nice Ford 640! I am doing a full fluid change of course before beginning operations, and the first video I watched was your oil change walk-through! I even ordered a new oil plug with screen, oil filler cap and agri filter! I'd love to see a video on changing hydraulic and transmission fluids as well! I'm a big fan already!

[@muskegonhunterscamp]

Dan, Rachel, both of ya make it so easy to spin up quick on older Ford tractors, bless yall.

[@charleswhite810]

Seems to me you are confusing "Draft Control" and "Position Control." Position Control allows you to vary the height the three point hitch raises the implement (no just up or down, but anywhere in between). When you use Draft Control, you set the operating height of the implement just like with position control but increasing load on on the tractor will raise the implement higher with increasing load. This is a significant different. Again, Position Control sets the height of the implement based on the position of the control lever. When using Draft Control, you set the initial height of the implement with the control level, but once you are pulling the implement, the height of the implement will vary based on the load (as load increases, the implement is raised to try and reduce the load to the desired level). My Father always pulled the bottom plow using the draft control.

[@ronaldbrackett5918]

Your comment that the 9n and 2n were strictly up or down is incorrect.. they were referred to as the Ford Ferguson because Harry Ferguson had developed the draft control and then in l1948 ford and Fergeson split up .

[@ronaldlopez3741]

I bought a 9N with a 12 volt conversion which wasn't charging the battery as indicated on the ammeter. An experienced tractor mechanic gave me the fix which I could not find on You Tube. He had a 1964 Chevy alternator wire connector wire he plugged in to the alternator and alligator clipped it to the battery wire. The ammeter shot up indicating a charging condition. I purchased the connector at Autozone and wired it in with an on/off switch I installed on the dash which needs to be switched on before starting (this energizes - adapts the alternator to the proper voltage output to the battery). The ammeter should then show charging. You then switch it to the off position. The ammeter should continue to indicate charging during operation. I had seen this installed dash switch on a Ford 9N tractor repair video being engaged, but with no explanation as to its purpose.

[@adriaanboogaard8571]

I had a old Freind with a some what newer version of what looked like a 900 but the blue and grey . He would be about 110 years old . He had oil land and until like his father before the oil checks came in 1970's he had mineral rights he bought new equipment but kept it until he passed away. His stuff still lives

[@ShainAndrews]

I already see the comments section filling up. People... please realize how difficult it is to remember every difference between a model, much less the differences between years of the same model. They easily hit the high points so the average person can determine with a reasonable amount of certainty what model and year machine they have. Gringell's. You did a fine job. I've messed around my share of vintage Fords. Frankly I rarely need to know the model and such to rectify the owners issues most of the time. Now I have a reference to try and be more knowledgeable on the subject.

[@mandulele]

I agree with your comment, also think about how hard it is to get a version of all these tractors to show in the video! Appreciate the video as well, nicely done!

[@jamesacuff5176]

Great Video and explanation on the different ford tractors, however I would love to have an explanation of how the Fordson tractors (Major & Dexta) fit into the mix. I own two fordson dextas and they are very different but similar too.

[@raymondscott8584]

Ford with the Ferguson system. Ford manufactured the tractor ( 9N&2N) but the 3 point with draft control was Harry Ferguson’s “system”. The 8N was after the separation and is not badged with the Ferguson system badge. It has position control also.

[@LedgemereHeritageFarm]

The jubilee has always been my favorite. Very well done, thank you 😊

[@turtletruth]

Hello, I'm a 64-year-old farmer who recently purchased a small farm in Goodrich, Mi, off Dutch Road. My wife and I stopped at the Steiner Tractor store for a look around and to purchase a front tractor emblem for my old 8n! Inside the store, I took 1 photo of my wife sitting in a chair and the counter clerk scolded me saying, no taking of pictures in the store. The counter clerk demeaned me in front of another customer, and my wife! I don't plan to return to Steiners or make further purchases from them! Steiner Tractor should post signs that read: (PLEASE, NO CAMERAS ALLOWED!) to prevent degrading community customers. (Occurred on Monday, July 17, 2023)

Hello Gingell family, I just bought an 801 series 861 Ford tractor, how do I know if it is gas or diesel? I was told it is gas but want to make sure. Thank you. And do you know I can the front medallion on the front that says what it is? Oh and did they come in blue? Not sure the color, it is orange under and blue over top, the blue is peeling and under is orange.

[@frederickbooth7970]

If the engine has a carburetor with only 1 fuel line from tank to carburetor than its gas. If diesel it will have several lines going from the fuel injection pump to engine all steel.

[@kennethperian4370]

I have a old tractor I got from my brother back in the1990s when I had a 8N sold it and got my brothers 801 Ford 4 storker I not sure what year it is I’ll send info on it sometime when I can and we’ll see what year it is. My brother got it in the 1970s well see ya next time see ya bye.

[@aleckelsey402]

Awesome, iam so glad your still making these very informative videos. Thank you very much!!!

[@JackBrunelle]

You missed a tractor. Supposedly in 1964 before Ford came out with the true Ford 4000 4 cylinder series, they took 801 powermasters and retrofitted them with loaders and backhoes and named them Ford 4000 industrial. Original paint sceme for those were a red belly and yellowish cream tin with a egg crate grill. I own one of these tractors. Would love to know if this story is accurate from your view.

[@TheIslandKing]

You may have just answered out with the block swap!

[@davidwatson-r3m]

I really appreciate your videos on all the different tractors. I've bought forgot what I did know about all the different tractors. I've got a Ford 650, that was painted blue. I have been told the dealers would paint some of the tractors blue so they would look different & attract buyers. Sometimes my lift when it's hot gets the he cups. I've been told it was the piston rings. I am about 60 years old & after bush hogging to day I could use power steering! 🚜🚜🚜👍

[@TF856]

I believe what she's calling draft control on that is what is referred to as position control on other tractors. Draft control is another lever right next to the position control lever on most tractors that raises or lowers the implement depending upon the load on the engine or how much it pulls backwards on the tractor according to several other websites and the way it worked on my dad's Massey Ferguson. Could you please explain the difference in descriptions at 2:28? Was there a change in descriptions of those levers at some point? Why would they call it draft control for a few years and then suddenly call it the position control and then add the other lever and call that the draft control? Since Harry Ferguson invented the three-point hitch maybe he had a different name for the control of it? After all, Harry won the lawsuit. 🥳😁

[@dianamoore2552]

I could really get some insight on what my ford tracker is. 2000 sticker is indicated on the hood. The model number is 631 The serial number is 06337. I have tried to identify the year & model. Contradictory to what I have been finding, mine has a PTO with 10 spine. Could really use your help because I need another PTO.

[@andy41417]

Any truth to the tale Henry screwed Ferguson over the hitch so Ferguson decided to build his own tractor and compete against Ford?

[@frederickbooth7970]

True! Their handshake agreement fell to pieces.Never cared for the shift lever starter engagement on the TO 25 that I used at a different farm Had shift lever break off in my hand when in barn cleaning & loading manure spreader.

With the extra low gears you will find it very useful for loader work or heavy tillage / mowing projects.

[@ditzydoo4378]

Simply lovely run through the early Ford tractor series. Well done you two. I still have my father's 1963 Ford 4000 Industrial 172 c.i. 4-cylinder Diesel. Your information on Dealer repainting may have solved a mystery about this 4000. The under paint shows it to be a "Red-Belly" with a "Cream" not Biege set of tins. But at some time, it was over sprayed in all Ford Blue which has for the most part flaked and peeled off over the decades. I now believe the livery colors to be the "one-year" color before the next year it was Blue/Cream and the following Blue/Gray. 😊

[@alanchesmore3312]

Wow! This presentation was impressive. When I was a kid, we had a 50/51 (not sure which) 8N that received the upgraded blue paint. My dad bought it back in 72. It was an absolute workhorse of a machine. I’m now in the hunt for one myself.

[@leviticus8930]

I have worked on more 8N/9N/Jubilee's than I have cars. Restored more than I can count. I always got a chuckle with the leather ring/o-ring that they put on the hydraulic pump piston.

[@316jd140]

As mentioned in another comment, 9Ns and 2Ns only have draft control. Starting with the 8N, Ford put position control on the tractors. There is another lever, above the draft control lever, that when placed in the vertical position allows the operator to set a desired height. This is position control. When that lever is in the horizontal position, you are back in draft control. Also, the early 2Ns, up to mid 1944, used the I-beam style radius arms same as the 9N. In mid 1944 Ford redesigned them to the oval shape arms. Also, the 2Ns added access holes in each of the doglegs to removed or loosen the bolts that hold the grille on. The 9Ns did not have these. There are also other subtle changes in the 2Ns versus the 9Ns, plus Ford made running changes in both as they did with the 2N's radius arms. On the Ford Ferguson name, that is correct for the 9N and 2N. Harry Ferguson, wanted just his name on the tractor, but Ford said no, so they came up with Ford Ferguson 9N, and then later Ford Ferguson 2N. Harry Ferguson, after the hand shake agreement, thought the 9N was his, and wanted a lot of control over the tractor, including the name. Before him and Henry Ford went into business together, Ferguson was in business with David Brown, and their tractor was the Ferguson Brown. That was the tractor Harry brought to Dearborn, Michigan to demonstrate to Henry Ford to get Ford to go into business with him. If Ford did not agree, Harry Ferguson would have been broke, since he spent so much and borrow so much to come to the US and bring some tractors over to demonstrate to Ford. BTW, live PTO was an option for the Jubilee and NAA. I don't know how many were equipped with it, but per Ford's video ad for the Golden Jubilee, it was mentioned it was available as an option.

[@noelgrech8315]

You are right about the agreement between Henry Ford and Harry Ferguson but we have to give credit where it is due. It was Ferguson;s genius invention of the 3-point linkage that revolusionized the design of the modern tractor whose principle is used almost unchanged on farm tractors all over the word. Most of his disagreements with David Brown were because Brown wanted to introduce a bigger tractor but Ferguson refused as he wanted to show that his rather small compact tractor could outperform the bigger competitors of that time.

[@316jd140]

@@noelgrech8315 Harry Ferguson received credit for the "Ferguson System", but he wasn't the only one behind it. In fact, Ford's countersuit against Ferguson pointed out that Will Sands was the person that was more responsible for the system. When Henry and Harry shook hands, Ford engineers working with Sands had to iron out several problems with the system. It's ironic that after the handshake agreement and when a few Ford-Ferguson tractors were already being sold, Ferguson wanted a bigger tractor. Ford made a few prototypes of this larger tractor, and from what I've seen and read, it was pretty impressive. But it didn't get much traction with Henry and Henry II. It's also ironic that a decade later, Ford did start making a slightly larger tractor, the 800 series (and the NAA did grow a bit in size from the 8N, but just a small bit). Henry, when he was alive, was a firm believer in one size fits all.

[@willfrye7752]

Hi...I love your very informative videos. I have a 9n tractor, and you mentioned some 9ns are more valuable. Mine has a three speed transmission with a high low extra. Is that something special, and what else should I look for. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I appreciate that.

[@jroar123]

Great information. I had my Ford 8N stolen down in Rockport, Texas. It was a real workhorse and I miss my tractor. So I am thinking about purchasing another tractor. Any suggestion as to which one I should consider. It would be used as a finishing mower for the front and back yard. And, something just to drive around the neighborhood. Thanks!

We had a 1962 Massey Ferguson 65 with front end loader. It had a dual stage clutch which allowed for a live PTO which was a big deal to have a live PTO back then. It had a 52 HP Perkins diesel. Great tractor back in the day. Also had a 8N Ford (not sure which year it was) which was the first tractor I drove when I was just 8 years old. Brings back lots of great memories.

Outstanding channel. I've owned 2N, 8N, 8N Funk 6 cylinder, and now a 961 Powermaster with wide frontend and front end loader. I love my tractors, though I'm lucky to be alive after some of my escapades on them. I'm having a great deal of trouble with my power steering on the 961 and with no power steering it is a very difficult task to do my chores reasonably and safely. I've recently retired from 40 years of anesthesia practice and am struggling to adjust to living without continual huge adrenaline rushes from Level 1 Trauma center experience. I'm actually really glad to be out of the pressure cooker, but am striving to get caught up on so many of the projects I've neglected for so long. Your information is invaluable and I hope that I'll be able to find the info I need to get the power steering problems rectified. Comically, I found out that a front end loader on a 961 doesn't mean you now have a bulldozer. So I burned out my dual clutch which the dealer in the area wanted ~$3,500 to fix. Being a stubborn old German, I said heck no and bought a Harbor Freight shop crane and split the tractor and replaced it myself. I didn't attempt to rebuild that dual clutch myself, but had it sent to a "specialist" in old Fords somewhere in Iowa and he did a great job. I've given up on having functioning brakes on it, but sure would like to have power steering back. Maybe I'll someday get around to putting in new seals in the rear axles, which I've been told is the reason my brakes still don't work after replacing shoes. Living in the Loess Hills of western Iowa, brakes are really kind of a must, but I've survived (barely) without them for the 38 years I've lived here with almost always brakeless, vintage Ford Tractors. Oh my goodness, the stories we all could share about these marvelous old beasts. I have seen so many of the most brilliant Rube Goldberg mods on old Ford Tractors over the years. Barnyard geniuses rigging 8N's with pulleys and steel cables to install foot controlled throttles, etc . The greatest examples of American ingenuity. I will definitely be accessing your website and would greatly appreciate any advice re: resources. I have the red 900 manual--if I can find it up in the barn and our resident groundhog hasn't devoured it for its' nest. Thnx for the Blessed work you do, Greg

I’m wondering if it’s a 2N. The serial number falls within the 1945 grouping of serial numbers that are 9N170018-9N198766. The serial number on the block reads 9N171377.

There is also another 2000 that you did not mention. It is technically a Fordson Dexta/Super Dexta, but was badged as a Ford 2000 diesel in the US.

[@jimwebb9328]

9n and 2n don't have draft control. INCORRECT! 9n and 2n have ONLY draft control. What they don't have is position control. What's the difference? Draft control governs how deep in the soil the plow goes. It strives to maintain a constant depth for the plow. With an implement used above the surface of the ground, there is no control. The implement will drift up and down aimlessly. That was corrected with the addition of position control on the 8n.

[@The3chordwonder]

I just found this video because I don't know what I have. I was told it is a 1975 Ford Backhoe. So obviously it has a backhoe and loader on it. The engine serial number is something like c445000 which some charts say is a 1974 with 1975 starting at c450000. But the numbers when decoded for the engine was January 2 of 1975. The chassis ID (I think) also shows something like January 10th 1975. The Rear axle shows up as November of 1974. The tractor is a 3 cylinder gas, but I am not sure if it is the 3.1 or 3.3. It has a generator, not an alternator, but it has the 4 speed torque convertor transmission, and the only thing I can find on that was a 1975 model 535. I bought both the 535 series manuals and the huge 4000 manual you have, but I am finding conflicting info about the alternator vs generator and the trans. So I guess I'm curious if I have a very late model 4000 (I've read somewhere it would have been a 4500 actually) with perhaps some 535 options in it, or a very early model 535 where they used up the generators they maybe had on the shelf. I don't know if power steering was optional or not, but mine has it. I am new to tractors, so still trying to identify all the controls, but I do not see the emergency brake handle which I think was an option. I also don't see a way to pin the left+right brake pedals together, but I haven't spent much time looking. I've been watching your videos a lot, thank you very much, I'm learning a whole lot from them!

Since I got the tractor used, I assume someone has swapped the engine out to an earlier 9N, not the 8N that should be with the rest of the tractor.

For tractor work the 8n is better than 9n and 2n but i have a 9n which to me has best antique apearance with the wide five front hubs and wide.six rear and i beams it is a cool look. I like the fergusen hood. I thought about converting 9n hood to open that way but not so easy considering gas tank and the dash area. Still theu are all cool tractors the Jubulee is a sweet look as well.😊

[@traceyfrink6574]

No one mentioned the Ford 2600 3 cylinder. Know how to identify those old blues by serial number.

WE had a 961 tricycle for a 2 row mounted corn picker. What is the distinction for the 961?

[@corygene6477]

Anyone happen to know what tractors had a Ford 300 inline 6 in them? Trying to find the right tractor muffler

[@randyscrafts8575]

I think the biggest detractions of the 9N are the brake pedal location, the PTO engagement, and the lack of draft control. The throttle being so close to the steering wheel is a problem I may modify one day because my fingers catch it if I don't use the steering wheel spinner.

I have a 1948 n8 with 2 forward speeds and reverse. You said most of them was a 4 speed. I guess I have something different.

I have a 1950 or so 8n ford tractor it looks to be 12 volts I can t get it to spin the motor over it sound like it not in engaging the Bendix, are they supposed to be hooked up Red deposited black to negative and that system

[@CharlesFischer-r5d]

I got a 1951 Ford Jubilee Dusty water pump went out of . I ordered a new one and it's got to come out of Minnesota I guess

[@relevation0]

Blacks? 😂

[@terrysamsa860]

My understanding is the 2n designation came from the 9n being equipped with steel wheels in 1942 to conserve rubber for the war effort.

[@loumontcalm3500]

It was also to get around federal price controls... it was a "new" model, so exempt.

[@timpatrick3161]

Question my friend bought a Ford 4000 industrial painted just like the one in your video it's not the selectos speed and we did not take the little cover off the back where the PTO is it's that flat little triangle is there a PTO in there if not how hard is it to add a PTO shaft please do a detailed video on that if you can

[@tfhummer]

What about the Balmar tractor? That was made by Ford but modified by Balmar so not sure if that should be included or not? Thoughts

[@nevetsnietsnedlug8115]

[@billrook6165]

Very informative video that answered a lot of questions that I had over the years. I've always been interested in the Funk Conversion (6-cyl, 8-cyl) Ford tractors. They would make an interesting video as well.
